Using Instant Capacity to Manage Processing Capacity
Overriding Deferred Processor Activations and Deactivations
Chapter 462
Example 4-6 Undoing an Accidental Deferred Processor Activation
1. On your system or partition you currently have 2 processors
activated and 2 processors inactive. You accidentally perform a
deferred activation for 1 additional active processor by entering the
following command:
/usr/sbin/icod_modify -D -a 1
2. Later, and prior to a system reboot, you realize that you didn’t want
to activate the additional processor — which would give you 3 active
processors — and you want your number of active processors to be 2.
You can override the initial deferred activation in
Step 1 by entering
the following command:
/usr/sbin/icod_modify -a 0
The -a 0 option in
Step 2 (above) overrides the previous (deferred)
icod_modify command, which was executed in
Step 1. The -a option is
relative to the number of active processors (not the intended number of
active processors).
You could accomplish the same result as
Step 2 with the following
command:
/usr/sbin/icod_modify -s 2
